• Attend regional and national education conferences and trade shows to represent the brand.
• Maintain accurate activity records and pipeline data in the company CRM.
• Stay informed about K–12 trends, funding sources, and district purchasing cycles to anticipate customer needs.

• Proven success in consultative, relationship‑based sales.
• Strong communication, presentation, and negotiation skills.
• Lives in and experience with the Western U.S. and West Coast education market with the ability to travel (trade shows, district meetings, site visits).
